Chapter 345 The Second-Rate Scoundrel of the 1980s 2



Double the points? That's impossible.

"However, to make up for it, I can let you draw a prize once at random."

The system made some things float.

Outsiders couldn't see it, but Ning Hong could see it clearly.

"What is all this stuff? System, at least put some good stuff on here."

"There are good ones, it just depends on your luck."

The system's voice carried a hint of smugness.

"Tsk tsk, this luck is a bit hard to come by."

A piece of meat?

A bag of rice?

A gold bar? It might still be somewhat useful.

What the heck is a pack of sanitary napkins?

He's a grown man—besides, he owns a shopping mall, which has everything. He doesn't need these little things at all.

"Go ahead and draw one, it's better than nothing!" the system said smugly.

Ning Hong stared intently at 0321, which was fluttering its little wings, and cursed inwardly.

"I'll smoke." Ning Hong finally decided to smoke.

Well, at least it's some compensation.

This broken system has always been like this; he can't ask for too much.

Ning Hong casually flicked the pointer that was floating among these things.

The pointer spun twice and finally stopped on a box.

"What's this?"

The box fell to the ground, and Ning Hong opened it.

Inside the box lay the jade slip containing the 'Intermediate Cooking Skills' manual.

"Oh, system, you're so kind of you, being so generous for a while." Ning Hong then directly stuck the jade slip to her forehead.

A force instantly rushed into his mind.

It doesn't hurt, it's just a little swollen.

He had already experienced this once before, like a sudden awakening.

System: "...You're quite lucky."

Surprisingly, he was chosen for the intermediate cooking skill level.

You should know that he was just there to make up the numbers.

Having received the plot and the gift, Ning Hong retreated back to bed.

"Since he's a good-for-nothing, he might as well sleep a little longer."

Wait, that's not right.

There are still things to do.

Things have now progressed to the point where Ning Xiaoshuang has been sold.

In other words, if he hadn't gone, Ning Xiaoshuang would have married that gloomy, lame man today.

Ning Hong then turned and ran.

Ning Xiaoshuang sat on the table, her face deathly pale.

I listened numbly as they discussed the issue of bride price.

She felt very upset.

But what could be done? Third Brother insisted on getting together with that woman.

Now they're demanding compensation, or they'll sue Third Brother. How much money could Third Brother possibly have? Eldest and Second Brothers won't pay any attention to him. Aside from her dowry, they have absolutely no other options.

"Look at her face, she's so pretty, give her more money."

"Are you marrying off your daughter or selling her?" The lame man's name was Yuan Shuisheng. He was quite good-looking, but unfortunately, his sinister appearance after becoming lame was unpleasant.

It seems that because of his misfortune, he was unwilling to see others happy.

"Aren't we having some family difficulties?"

Ning's mother rubbed her hands together.

"You've ruined your own daughter for such a good-for-nothing. You've done a terrible job as a parent."

Ning's parents didn't know how to respond.

That's a fact, and they can't refute it.

"That·······"

"Stop, stop."

Ning Hong rushed in, panting, and slammed her hand on the table.

"Let's leave it at that. Don't say any more about it."

"Hongze, what are you making a scene about? Get out of the way."

"Yes, it's all for you."

Yuan Shuisheng said in a sarcastic tone.

In short, I'm not getting married.

Ning Hong then pulled Ning Xiaoshuang up, saying, "From now on, I will personally see Xiaoshuang off. I will prepare a lot of dowry for her so that she can get married in style, instead of being forced to marry off for a small amount of money like she is now."

"What do you mean by 'for a little bit of betrothal money'? It's all because of you, you heartless bastard. If you hadn't caused trouble, why would I have treated Xiaoshuang like this?"

This is her own daughter, and her heart is still bleeding.

"Then don't get married."

"Brother, stop messing around. What will you do if I don't marry him?"

"I have a way."

Ning Hong patted Ning Xiaoshuang's head and said, "You really won't get married. Wait two more years, and your brother will send you off to your wedding in style."

Ning Hong nodded to the person who looked like a matchmaker and bowed again.

"I'm not getting married today. I'll trouble you again in a while."

After saying that, he pulled Ning Xiaoshuang away.

The Yuan family members were left behind with ferocious expressions.

There were also Ning family members who looked completely bewildered.

"Oh dear, Ning family, are you trying to inflate the price of your daughter?"

She deliberately said she wouldn't marry, but in reality, she just wanted to ask for more dowry.

"Okay, how about adding another two hundred yuan to what we agreed on before?"

"I'm sorry, but as you can see, my son is a troublemaker. If I really let him off the hook and let Xiaoshuang marry Shuisheng, I don't know what my son will do."

"I'm so sorry."

The couple walked away with frowns.

Aunt Liu, who was pulling the string, was actually quite happy.

Everyone says Ning Hong is a good-for-nothing scoundrel, but she's actually quite polite.

"It's alright. The Ning family isn't fortunate enough to have Shui Sheng marry into the family. I'll find someone else for her, someone even better than the Ning family's."

"Brother, what are you doing?" Ning Xiaoshuang was being dragged along by Ning Hongze, but when they reached the village entrance, she shook off his hand.
